galaxy note 4 s-lte(SM-N916L) - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know about this model? No one seems to know..
I have one problem. At the moment there are several ways to root galaxy note4, including philz recovery and cf auto root. However, as far as i know it works for only note4 model sm-n910 line. However in korea, upper model for n-910 is released, known as sm-n916 line. Both model have the same hardware and software specs, the only difference is their network connection specs. (N916 has faster and improved data lte connection) . Now the problem is that i have n916 model, and rooting for this device does not work with the method that can root n910 model. I thought it would work because everything software and hardware specs are the same. I am really frustrated because i cant root ㅜ.ㅜ
It's only been a month or twice since its release. The exact model is SM-N916L(LG U plus phone carrier. Alphabet that comes after 916 represents differet phone carriers. S is for skt, and K is for Kt, L is for Lg uplus). It is a upper model for SM-N910L galaxy note 4. You can see that SM-N910L model is present in autoroot([email protected]@eu) but not the upper model SM-N916L. Any ways i could help the developers to enable rooting for this device? perhaps finding you the stock firmware? Demand for this device than previous note4 n910 will increase. Really hope to root this device.
Could i get any help? (Btw i am living in korea using korean model). Really willing to donate if i could root this model!
hope i can get a reply as soon as possible. Have a good day~

If you guys rooted your phone successfully let me know please

Yes install clockwork mode then cf auto root.
Use Odin
Always remove battery when done and phone is about to restart and then put battery back into phone.

The recoveries were never meant for Marshmallow since those devices were running Android Lollipop.
The Android Marshmallow update for those devices had come out much later on.

[Q] Galaxy Note N9100 (China Dual SIM Model) Root

Hi All,
Firstly SORRY for posting here. This should be in the dev thread, but I have no rights there.
I am unable to post to post in the developer thread (being newly registered) and I am hoping Chainfire can provide a root for the Galaxy Note 4 SM-N9100 China model. He has requested that the recovery.img file from the phone model's stock ROM be attached. He has already provided the root for a few other files but I see in another post, he didn't do it for this one because he couldn't download the firmware easily. I have downloaded the stock firmware and extracted the needed file.
If someone with dev posting rights can help post the attached file to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1980683&page=55
I would be super super appreciative :fingers-crossed:
Many thanks.
For thanks in advance to Chainfire, I have just made a donation.....
.... now praying.... can't use my apps purchased on Google Play on this phone without the root.
http://download.chainfire.eu/564/CF-Root1/CF-Auto-Root-trltechn-trlteduoszc-smn9100.zip
thanks chainfire!
tried it on mine but it didn't work. had a flash write failure...
Maybe Locked Bootloader
First, big thanks to Chainfire for the super fast action!!
But yeah, I've got the same issue. The recovery.img was from sammobile for n9100, so I don't think that is the problem.
I am suspecting it is a locked bootloader. Unfortunately I'm not at the moment able to detect this as while adb is working fine, fastboot is not recognizing the device. If anyone else knows how to easily check if the bootloader is locked (and has a good way to unlock without using fastboot), everything would be great.
Fastboot not supported for n9100
Ok tried fastboot on a different PC. Doesn't work for n9100 either. Can't detect devices in bootloader mode. Adb is ok. So likely not usb issue, must be simply not available on n9100 and from searching about seems Samsung likely doesn't support fastboot for many devices.
Troubleshooting
After further research, not too sure about the bootloader being the issue. Actually the SM-N9100 is not carrier branded or locked that I could tell. If the other models' roots work, then it makes no sense for this to be the issue here.
Chainfire, I see you posted that you may replace the ROOT you made for this model. If it helps in troubleshooting, here is what happened.
1 - Downloaded the stock firmware from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=36308
2 - Posted to you the recovery.img file from the ROM - not sure if that was the one you used. But after soft bricking my device by trying the root, I can confirm that I could reflash with the stock firmware and all went well.
3 - When trying the root, it starts no problem, but then there is a Write Fail error in Odin. If needed, I can repeat the process to provide all text and screenshots. There was no Red Android icon. The bootloader screen has some failure message and the Android icon remained green.
4 - Phone would not restart stating there was a firmware issue and that I should perform a recovery in Kies.
5 - I did not perform a recovery in Kies, but rather I reflashed (using Odin) the stock firmware. This worked ok.... but of course, I still have no root. Since the reflash worked, then I can only assume the recovery.img file is fine for my SM-N9100
I have used your Autoroot in the past for my Note 2 N7100 model, and it worked with absolutely no issue whatsoever. So I don't think the problem is that I am not following the Odin settings correctly or that I have some USB issue.
Thanks.
Further Details
I've added a screenshot of the Odin failure.
BTW, I noticed someone posted a rooting video in YouTube with this CF AutoRoot for N9100
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXpPSjlzrok
Funny the video stops right before the failure and you don't see the "PASS" result in Odin!
So I don't know if anyone has been successful with this root at all!
sm-n9100
Hi
I rooted my SAMSUNG GT-N9100 with Cf-Auto root via Odin everything was ok process was passed and phone took a restart i checked the apps there was superSU but when i opened it, it just waiting and happened nothing. I restart my phone in recovery mode to update gapps or other superSu upte it giving a write error. it was not rooted you can't do anything.
since you buy N9100, so i consider u can read a few chinese (if not u can use google translate to help u)
i've seen in chinese forums they can root N9100 without problems, so i give u a few links to help
here is the step by step for root :
http://www.muzisoft.com/root/80910.html
and
in here it said u need to flash cwm first..this is the link for recovery
http://www.muzisoft.com/recovery/80827.html
and then after that u need to put supersu.zip to ur sd card, so this is the link for the supersu.zip
http://www.muzisoft.com/softs/bixu/80821.html
hope this can help root ur device
or actually u can download root apps in chinese, there are a few root apps that u can use for root the phone
Looks like the 9100 just got the recent OTA yesterday.
I'm rooted so need the full Odin flashable ANK5 from sammobile:

Does any one know how to get twrp installed on sm-n9100.

Or either flash cmw recovery and it will ask you upon first reboot is you want to install su.
Both work for me

Same problem with me.I have the same korean varient with LG u+ logo. I am using it in Pakistan. Read almost every thread regarding korean variants but there is'nt any method specific for SM-N900L.
So are you wanting to flash a custom recovery e.g. twrp and then install a custom rom?
Sorry if I misunderstood your question.

Hello Hokage-Sama,
i think the custom recovery installed is TWRP
did some further searching online and i was able to restore the firmware from lollipop down to kitkat, from there i was able to download a md5 file which i ran from Odin and i was able to root the phone however, its based on kitkat and im still searching if there are any for lollipop and the only one i see if the 1 poser who asks for a $25 payment to update a N900L to N9005.
... was hoping if i can use Aryamod custom rom but i think my phone should be on a rooted lollipop under N9005 model only.
hope this made sense
thank you
Root is not required to install a custom rom.
If your phone can run 9005 ROMs, you could try editing the updater script to include your phone.

hi, thanks for the reply
apologies i dont know what you meant to edit hte updater script.
Sorry i have a N900L and based on reading some other threads only
DarkLord Note 5 RC2.1 or Phronesis v5.1 will work on my unit.
before installing the rom i should have a custom recovery right? but to get a custom recovery my bootloader needs to be unlocked first.
i am currently stuck on unlocking my bootloader, i downloaded samsung usb drivers, go to recovery mode, then insert the usb on the phone, i hear a sound when you connect a device on the pc and saying that the device is ready to use but i am unable to see the contents of my phone.
am i doing it correctly?
thank you once again
Are you sure the phone's bootloader is locked? If the bootloader is not locked, do not use any unlocking apps because this will proably brick the phone.
Just install TWRP from Odin. I don't recommend Philz Touch or CWM as I don't they have been updated for a while.

i tried the twrp custom recovery based on the link you sent above thru Odin, it messed up my custom recovery, when i tried to go there it said something like unable to load recovery and goes to download mode and the phone wont startup normally.
is that a sign that my bootloader is locked since i cant install the custom recovery?
used my standard backup recovery to bring back the phone.
i wonder how other SM-N900L users installed their roms.
any other help would be greatly appreciated
thanks a lot
When you flashed twrp, did Odin say the installation was successful?
Download the tar version of twrp for your device from here: twrp.me .
In Odin, do not check anything except f.reset time. Flash twrp and, when you see the word "reset" in the status window, remove the USB cable from the phone, remove the battery, wait 5 seconds, replace battery, now use button combination to boot into recovery.
thanks for the help, was finally able to install twrp custom recovery. the latest version wont work on SM-N900L, i used TWRP-2.8.6.0-N900S version and it worked! im now running on Darklord N5 custom rom for Note3 and loving it!!!

Need Guidance...

Hey guys,
I'm going to install a custom ROM today to see if that maybe fixes my SensorHub not working. I just need guidance on the correct procedure. I have a SM-N900 model (N900XXUEBOL2) running Lollipop 5.0. Do I first need to root, or can I install a custom ROM straight from the stock recovery? It seems like there aren't may ROMS available for the SM-900 model, but I've found one that seems to have good battery life and performance: TR-ROM. This is the procedure I will follow:
1) Root phone with CF-Auto-Root-ha3g-ha3gxx-smn900.zip
2) Use ODIN to flash n900-cwm-recovery-6.0.5.0-kk_L5.0(0812).tar
3) Flash TR-ROM from CWM: TR-ROM XDA
Is this all correct? I just want to make sure that I don't brick my phone!
Also, how can I revert back to stock if I need to?
Thanks so much!!!

OK. ..so are the 3 steps I mentioned above correct?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/guide-root-note-3-sm-n900-5-0-install-t3069670
I'm trying to follow that guide, but the build number of N900 on the CF-Root site says:
LRX21V.N900XXUEBOA6
Whereas mine is:
N900XXUEBOL2
Will is still work? Also, it says a locked bootloader will probably brick your device. How do I check if mine is locked?
I've rooted and installed custom roms on many devices before - I'm not sure why rooting and installing custom rom on the Note 3 is so daunting...
Google?

I wouldn't be asking here if I hadn't already Google'd extensively.
But of course... The phone is brand new, so there's no info yet available. I understand...
Yes, do as you wrote in the first post. Should be ok, as those are the latest files.

I'm finding that there is actually TOO much information (too many variables). That's why I'm asking specifically about my version, as I can't seem to get my head around it - and rather than brick my phone, I'm merely seeking a bit of guidance from someone more experienced than me. In the past, when I was rooting previous phones, I received a lot of useful information and help from XDA - but it seems like now all I'm getting are sarcastic remarks and general unfriendliness. Why is that?
You have N900 its an exynos model not the qualcom .Not something that has a big following on here .
The links in your post point to zips , whats the point of me downloading a zip ??
CF autoroot you need to read the instructions regarding builds .
Locked boot loader no idea for that model .
CWM yes flash via Odin if its the correct one for your model .
Flash rom yes the rom will give you the method .

I have a Chinese A8000 and I am desperate to get marshmallow, but before voiding the warranty do you think I can flash one of the firmware for a800f because Chinese variants will ALWAYS only take the firmware HK variants don't take like Singapore (XSP) firmware

Well it turns out it tells me unsupport dev type. A800F firmware may make the machine think you are flashing an unofficial ROM and tells you that you have to void the warranty by unlocking the CROM. Unfortunately this is a A8 model that is still not renewed on the Wi-Fi Alliance. There is a chance that Samsung does NOT do that update on the Wi-Fi Alliance page but still get marshmallow, for example: my Galaxy S5 G900H. It literally says 5.0 lollipop on that website but I installed marshmallow 4 months ago. Chinese models tend to get the updates very late but I hope at least it still receives updates.

Do NOT flash a800i marshmallow on an a8000. The a800i has a different chipset, it would probably brick your phone. You'll have to wait a while I guess, there doesn't seem to be any hk 6.0.1 roms out.
Just one day ago ther is news about A8 duos getting marshmallow. Which phone is that? As far as i know my A8000 IS duos device. Out of all other A8 models which one's marshmallow is possible to be put on A8000?

My friend is having trouble, i will install sm-a800i rom
my phone: sm-a8000
Are you sure this rom is on the phone ??
Update: Both the Hong Kong version and the Chinese version of A8000 received marshmallow update! The update brings much smoother app experience/animation and better battery life (which was already great since day 1) overall! I have just noticed that today and installed it. Trust me, I will NEVER go back to that old inefficient lollipop on this phone!
Yay! Marshmallow for A8000. Does anyone know if they made an autoroot for this yet or any root method? I see the other A8s have it but not this.

Hello, I'm not sure whether this is the right place for my problem but I will give it a try. I have a problem with TWPR recovery on sm-a8000 Chinese version.
Every time I try to flash any zips it fails.
Error 70 failed to mount preload (invalid argument ) I can't do factory reset either. I'm able to root the phone with auto root and the phone works normally except for the custom recovery. I tried to do factory reset in original recovery and it worked but during the boot in the original recovery it said no command.
My aim is to install Google play apps.
Here are some pictures of the recovery result. My internal memory is only 3Mb in the recovery but if I connect the phone to my computer it shows 16Gb.
Any idea what's going on?

Hi do you have any working custom recovery ?
My problem is the recovery itself not root.
I have the twrp costum recovery.

Need N900W8 Bootloader & Modem & ROOT?

Hi, I have a N900W8 (Canada) and I am in Lollipop. I am looking for the Marshmallow bootloader & modem for N900W8.
Also, im looking to root my phone other than the cf auto root method. Because after flashing the cf-autoroot for n900w8, my buttons stopped working.
Thank you.
There is no marshmallow bootloader or modem.
You can flash SuperSU from twrp.
What bootloader/modem can I use for a marshmallow rom?
Just use the latest LP bootloader and modem.

I thought it should be a marshmallow bl/cp for a marshmallow rom. Didnt know i can use a lollipop.
And for the supersu, i just need to flash twrp then flash supersu from chainfire website?
Thank you.
There is no MM bootloader and modem because Samsung never released a MM build for the Note 3.
Yes, just flash twrp and Chainfire's supersu.
@audit13 do you know how to get the modem and bootloader from a stock firmware (tar.md5) ?
Not sure if you can extract it from a stock rom but it may be easier to just flash the entire rom in Odin.

Okay, I'll do that. Also, do you know what custom kernel is compatible with stock rom N900W8VLU2DPG1 ?
AFAIK, there is no custom kernel that is compatible with the stock Samsung ROM because the Samsung Note 3 apps require a Samsung kernel.
Hi.
Hi, sorry to make it alive. I have a Canadian Samsung Note 3 with (bell mobility) carrier. And, I'm searching to root my phone for removing bloatware and pushing the power out. But and completely newb, and no idea where to start. I have try towelroot and Kings with no success.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/samsung-galaxy-note-3-sticky-roll-t3237249

There is a custom kernel for stock note3 lolipop firmware which is called lean kernel, idel kernel, ater97 kernel and shinto kernel.... Do ur research before saying thinks u don't knw about ok bro.
@jgun007, I said "AFAIK", I never said there wasn't a kernel for the Canadian note 3 sm-n900w8 which is the model referred to in the subject line of this thread and discussed in this thread.
I see that lean kernel is for the n900t (T-mobile note 3) which is not the same model as the Canadian note 3: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2488233
I see idel kernel here but I don't see the Canadian note 3 model listed as being compatible: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...nt/kernel-idlekernel-leankernel-fork-t3241582
I see arter kernel here for the n9005 which is not the same model # as the Canadian note 3: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/arter97-kernel-galaxy-note-3-t3028148
I see the thread for the shinto kernel was closed and the last post was in January 2015, about 2 years ago and I didn't see any mention of compatibility with the n900w8: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/help/shinto-kernel-t2895089
Hi.
Anybody know why, I'm searching with my phone information... I found nothing.
Model number sm-n9000w8
Version 5.0
Band n900w8vlu2dpg1
Number version lrx21v.n900w8vlu2dpg1
What do you want to know about your phone? The model # is sm-n900w8. I noticed you had three zeros in your post.
Looks like your phone is running the latest stock ROM according to sammobile.com: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N900W8/

Yes, is a stock device. Never rooted. And it's a mess for the 0 in over.
I have all my information but when I'm searching for rooting... I found nothing and no procedure for someone who have a cellular like mine. N900W8VLU2DPG1.

You can root using cfautoroot and Odin.
